I love that at 14:29 when he mentions indie filmmakers original voices that is important, not what the big corporations want. I would love to know who was the famous filmmaker who he won't name who said "Get rid of the old Lady" for requiem for a dream. It is a uphill struggle to get an indie film made, but we must keep going.
Delivering a message that does not courage live feedback presents much more opportunity for failure to communicate a "moral to the story." No wonder movies are a happy hunting ground for the critics.
Alex, get ME papa bear hugs, Lét your mind clear, and I remember You sent those old school sweaters, is it really You jew traditional musician of this World, Jesus Christ!!!!😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
What ancient art is "storytelling", that "new media" can't do? Just saying games don't do "storytelling", but films do, without saying what you actually MEAN with storytelling is just ridiculous.
I love Aronovsky as a filmmaker but his Rule 10 is a steaming mountain of faeces and his failing as an artist. Art is NOT politics. Politics is the pursuit and acquisition of power and filmmaking that pursues a political agenda is no longer art but propaganda in service of the same. The more political the film the more fraudulent it becomes as its inherent biases blind the filmmaker (propagandist) to the unpalatable truths. The great filmmakers realise their job is nothing but to truthfully reflect the audience to themselves. The concept that film shapes society is a frivolous conceit that plays to the vanity of filmmakers already prone to overvaluing their influence but the reality is that audiences are not stupid and reject manipulation.
I haven't got as far as point 10 yet, but I just want to make a point on your last point. Star Wars, for example, has battle scenes in space with alien creatures and yet in real life we have those who consider their religion as Jedi. But on a more realistic level films can teach in a million different ways about empathy, violence, love, sex etc and people can be influenced by it because it's shown them something different to what they know or believe. I disagree with your last point because I've been educated by films, not manipulated. Seeing another person's point of view on something and agreeing with it isn't manipulation.
bad mojo I think you mistook “disruption” to simply mean an ideological disruption, because he talks in context of a “world view”. That’s his concern, and his art. Your own work can be to make people see something else about life a different way.
I cannot agree even more with you! Hitchcock, one of the greatest, never cared about politics in his movies and actually avoided them (although he directed 2 movies that were quite pieces of propaganda). And Aronofsky is very rich and delusional, talking about saving the planet while down his street is fuller and fuller of unhoused people. He is very out of touch with some grander delusion. A film doesn't change let alone shape society. The commoners won't watch his artsy fartsy Mother!, and even if they do, they won't like. Next day they all need to wake up early in the morning to work hard with the hope that they can go through the month

Still love “Pi”. Still think that’s his best work.

Appreciate his work, haven't seen Mother looking forward.
Anyone else thinking that the voices and rhetoric of Darren Aronofsky and Edward Snowden sound very similar?
Who is Darren Aranofski?
Totally
Absolutely NOT
Snowden has skin in the game. One of the bravest most principled people on the planet. Aronovsky is a rich Hollywood celebrity.
Brillianceky!

Pi would never be accepted into Sundance today. Sadly the festival has become too corporate.

@bad mojo Your comment is utter bs. It is ALL manipulation and EVERYTHING is politics.
